I/O freezes after Print from Flash Player in Safari on Yosemite (MacOS 10.10)

I'm experiencing a lot of difficulty printing from a Flex Flash Player app with

Flash Player 15 on Mac OS 10.10 Beta 5 [14a386b] Safari [8.0 (10600.1.25)].

Or earlier versions, too.  It works OK in Firefox or Chrome.

Anyone else seeing this?

The pages actually do spool out and print, but after the app calls _printJob.send(), further I/O to the app ceases.  The view won't update.  Not even Alert.Show() does anything.

This happens in several different versions of Flash Player.

* The one for Mac OS X (Preview build) at get.Adobe.com 15.0 r-1

* The one for Mac OS X 10.6 - !0.9 at get.Adobe.com

* The one from the labs page

On the other hand, if I'm running the DEBUGGING Flash 15 Plugin,from www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html it works better. 

If you want to try printing something, go to:


www.musicnotes.com

and click on any of the pieces of music: then click "Print Sample" on the top left of the Flash Plugin.

    Thanks for the feedback.  Unfortunately, this is a bug in the Flex framework, and not in Flash Player.  We're aware of this issue, and have already reported it to the Flex maintainers.

    For background, Adobe discontinued development of Adobe Flex, and donated the Flex codebase to the Apache Foundation a couple years ago.  Contributors from the Apache foundation maintain Apache Flex now, and any new fixes in Flex would become available as part of a future release of the Apache Flex SDK.
